Latin words like : In varietate concordia (in the difference there is

union) and E pluribus unum (out of many, one!).

In Switzerland to avoid the differences between the three official

languages they used to call them Confoederatio Helvetica

Many gothic and black metal bands use to write in their lyrics

some Latin words
